We hired Dad's BBQ for our wedding in Palm Springs this past weekend, and we cannot say enough great things about their food and service. We ordered food for 50 people to be dropped off as a buffet-style setup. Rianna, whom I dealt with over email, was super responsive and always able to help as we put this together since I was the groom AND the wedding planner. Every single guest told us how amazing the food was, especially the peach cobbler!!!! I would 100% hire them again when we come back in a few years for our anniversary trip. =) Thank you for helping us have the best wedding. read more

They were amazing!! They served my Son's graduation party and everything turned out not only perfect but was DELICIOUS!! I would book them again!! read more

Our experience with Dads BBQ was absolutely perfect! Rianna was super sweet and responsive, communicated everything well, made good suggestions and accommodated what we needed. We were catering a memorial service for my dad who passed away and everyone was going to be at the cemetery when we had the catering delivered. We had our trusted neighbors open up the house for their team to deliver and set up the food before we all returned. They set everything up and had the food ready to serve all ready to go for when we got back to the house. Looking back I really wish I would have taken a photo of the setup when we got home. The food was amazing and the service top notch! Worth every penny. Will definitely use them again in the future!! read more

Where do I start?! Dads BBQ is outstanding! We've ordered catering from Dads a few times and they are always professional and top notch. Each time they have made a delivery, it's all wrapped up nicely and super clean. I've ordered from other places and the serving dishes are a messy with food all over the place. Dads delivers with care, so you know they put a lot of love and effort into the food they prepare. We ordered tri-tip, baby back ribs, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, cornbread, peach & triple berry cobbler. They gave us two bbq sauces, regular and spicy. Everyone LOVED the meal and complimented the meat rub. Everything was juicy & with so much flavor. The cornbread is slightly sweet and delicious! Our colleagues were extremely impressed and happy with their lunch. Dan Martinez and his wife are a pleasure to work with. You need to book Dads BBQ for your next event, you will be addicted to the flavor! read more

I had Dads BBQ cater my sons first birthday and it was 10/10!! Food was SO GOOD! Can't wait to book with them again!!

My best friend just ordered from Dads BBQ and they served chicken, brisket, pulled pork, bbq beans, and garlic mashed potatoes. All of it was delicious, mashed potatoes was so creamy and flavorful, as well as the beans! The meats were very juicy and tender, the brisket is practically falling apart! Also their BBQ sauce ties everything together, they give you a regular option or spicy option, and it gives everything a nice sweet tangy flavor. Perfect additions were the pickles, pickled onions, and Hawaiian rolls for the food. Through and through Dads BBQ knows how to deliver slow- smoked perfection and fulfill every craving and impress every guest. read more

I could not be happier with Dads BBQ! I had them cater a luncheon for 25 employees. They were super responsive and worked with me for an available date through their busy holiday season.

Can't wait till the next time!! Thank you Dads - I'm recommending you to everyone!!! read more

Dad's has become a regular event for us in December. Satisfying a room full of hungry railroaders is not an easy task but Don and Pearl have never let us down. Ribs, brisket, hot links and sides are always spot on not to mention my favorite, the smoked burnt ends. Definitely a favorite of our group and we'll definitely bring them back for future catered lunches. read more

Don and Pearl were very nice. But the BBQs and sides they served at my party were off the hook! So delicious, meat was so tender almost falling off the rib bones. We are very satisfied and 100% recommending Dads BBQ AND CATERING!!! read more

Ok this a long overdue review. We hired Dad's for drop off catering for my daughter's grad party. The brisket & tri tip was phenomenal! We also ordered Mac & cheese as well as mashed potatoes, corn and the banana pudding dessert cups. The compliments from our guests were endless. The food was nicely and securely packaged at drop off. And they arrived right on time! Would definitely hire them again and would love to try their onsite cooking service when we have a bigger group next time. read more

I hired Dad's BBQ to cater my daughter's 3rd birthday last month and it was nothing short of fantastic. Everything was delicious and moist, and delivered on time and piping hot. Great service, and a good price too from what I've heard. I think my only note (which is definitely a personal preference) was that I wished the spicy bbq sauce they provide had more heat. Other than that, perfect! Thank you Don and Pearl! read more

Don and his wife are the most beautiful couple, a kind and loving couple who care and cover all the details. I had a small dinner party to caterer and was looking for some outstanding food for my friends. Don and his wife knocked it out of the park, from the friendly service to the most delicious food my friends and I have ever had! The ribs were so tender and decadent followed by the marinated tri-tip that melted in your mouth. The baked Mac and cheese was not only mouth watering, but all the guests went back for seconds and thirds. Unbelievably and would give them 10 stars if it was possible. All of my small dinner parties are going to be catered by Dad's BBQ from now on. Thank you so much for people like Don and his wonderful wife, they make this world a nicer place!!! read more

All of the wonderful things have been said about Dad's Bbq, but here's my two cents: I used Dad's for my daughter's graduation dinner and they did not disappoint!! Our menu consisted of brisket, pulled pork, bbq chicken thighs, coleslaw, mac & cheese, baked beans and Hawaiian rolls. Everything was delicious, but for me the brisket took center stage!! It was tender, well seasoned and smoked just right. One guest after another asked who we used for catering and I was more than happy to give them one of Dad's business cards. Don made the whole process very easy and accommodated me when I needed a minor change with the delivery time. I would 200% use Dad's Bbq for my future events. read more
